My "out and about" mobile entry is obviously still floating in the ether and never made it to the blog, so here's my first chance to say Hello From Glasgow! It rained today.
I've had a bit of a bonkers week. I got back to the UK on Saturday, where I was met by HD and we drove back to Wales, having a very romantic wait for the RAC at the services just after the Severn Bridge as Bessie (the car) had overheated. Poor Bessie isn't very well at the moment, but after a bit of a scare it looks like she's not finished with us yet and will be gracing our lives for a bit longer. After a lovely weekend in Wales (when we did finally get home), where we (amongst other things) started planning our wedding list*, I spent a couple of days with my parents, generally being fed and watered and catching up with my post (and finding out that I wasn't (and still haven't) been paid in September, which is a bit irritating to say the least). Then drove up to Glasgow yesterday, and spent my first night back in the Stately Pile. It's still there, which was a relief!
Today I was back in uni, and have just popped into the lecture for the new first years, to introduce myself ahead of next week's tutorials. There don't seem to be any with two heads, so that's a relief. There are millions of them though - which means that I probably will have to do an extra tutorial group, and have about 20 more essays than usual to mark. Oh joy.
* that little detail is specially for Alice, who likes to know these things :)
